Old Zhao responded to Ye Suixin, who was holding the medicinal herbs and looking puzzled, "Haha, of course you come to Medicine Peak to learn alchemy... It's just that your master was confused and forgot to tell you."

"What should I do if I don't have a pill furnace? How about Master gives me one?" Sui Xin's eyes lit up. He had wanted to learn pill refining for a long time, but Lin Miao wouldn't allow it, saying that he should learn the theoretical foundation first.

"You little rascal, don't be in such a hurry. I'll take you to a good place first. Whether you have good fortune or not depends on you," Zhao Yingtian said with a smile, getting up and walking out, with Ye Suixin following behind him.

Buried Furnace Ground is a major important place on Medicine Peak. The deceased predecessors and sages would bury their alchemy furnaces here. Those furnaces, having been with the alchemists for a long time, have strong medicinal properties and are very helpful for alchemy.

However, subduing them was no easy task. Those predecessors and sages were all people of great vision and courage; otherwise, they wouldn't have left behind the furnace.

Their alchemy furnaces are the same; they have nothing special about them, so it's hard for them to be convinced and follow you wholeheartedly.

Zhao Yingtian explained to Ye Suixin from the side.

"What you need to do is communicate with the alchemy furnace with your heart, show them your special qualities, and make them recognize you as their master," Master Zhao continued.

“I see that your cultivation level is only at the fourth level, but your spiritual energy is astonishingly large, comparable to that of ordinary seventh or eighth level cultivators. You are not simple. Perhaps we can make a breakthrough with this.” Old Zhao was wise and saw Ye Suixin’s extraordinary nature at a glance.

“Okay, I’ll listen to my master,” Sui Xin said, somewhat surprised and impressed by the old man’s insight.

The master and apprentice did not fly; they walked slowly along the way.

"It's just ahead. Don't stray too far from me. The fire here is extremely strong. You could be burned to ashes if you're not careful," Old Zhao said, pulling Ye Suixin back and conjuring a protective sphere.

After walking another two or three hundred meters, Zhao Yingtian said, "This is it. Sit cross-legged and sense the spirit of the alchemy furnace around you. Try to communicate with it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

Ye Suixin didn't say much. Following her master's instructions, she closed her eyes and sat down, attempting to communicate with the glowing red dots in the air.

Indeed, he sensed countless red dots around him, seemingly close to him, slowly moving towards him.

Ye Suixin felt that the red dots and spiritual energy were somewhat similar, only the shapes were different; spiritual energy was thread-like.

So I tried to use my spiritual energy to move the red dot into my body.

The moment of penetration,

"It's so hot!" Ye Suixin clutched her chest and cried out instinctively. The red spots were burning her internal organs, and the pain was unbearable.

"Suixin, what's wrong?" Zhao Yingtian asked, puzzled. This process shouldn't have been dangerous; at most, there would be no gain.

"I don't know either. I just saw red dots in the air and felt that they were a bit like spiritual energy, so I thought of introducing them into my body to communicate with them. Ahhh," Ye Suixin rolled around in pain, unable to speak.

"What? That's the source of fire! What you're sensing isn't the spirit of the alchemy furnace!" Zhao Yingtian was also getting anxious, channeling cold energy into Ye Suixin to resist the extreme heat of the source of fire.

Ye Suixin felt much better and sat up straight again.

"Master, my chest, please let some more cold air into my chest," Ye Suixin said, clutching her chest.

Zhao Yingtian did as instructed.

"Master, the fire is slowly moving from my chest to my right hand," Ye Suixin said again.

Zhao Yingtian then changed the location of the cold air delivery.

And so, wherever the source of fire went, Zhao Yingtian would send out cold air to counteract the pain.

Finally, the source of fire fell into the Qi Sea and disappeared. What followed was a surge of spiritual energy, instantly filling the remaining third of the Qi Sea. Ye Suixin broke through to the fifth rank.

"Ugh, it's finally over," Ye Suixin said, still feeling a lingering fear, though her body was still aching.

"Sui Xin, try channeling your spiritual energy," Zhao Yingtian said to Ye Sui Xin.

"Huh? Oh," Ye Suixin said, puzzled, but she did as instructed.

A wisp of spiritual energy, faintly glowing with a flame, appeared on his right hand.

Looking at the flames, Zhao Yingtian exclaimed excitedly, "Just as I expected!"

"Master, what's wrong?"

Zhao Yingtian looked at Ye Suixin and explained, "You can sense the source of fire and dissolve the fire element into spiritual energy, which shows that your affinity for the fire element is extremely high. I have never seen anything like it in my life."

"He's practically a born alchemist!" Old Zhao laughed, pleased to have taken on such a fine disciple.

It seems we need to change our plans; we can't just let things continue as they are.

It would be such a waste to ruin such a promising talent because of him, Zhao Yingtian thought.

Ye Suixin smiled apologetically, realizing that this time she had turned misfortune into a blessing in disguise.

"Master, can I use the source of fire to cultivate every day?" Ye Suixin felt that she had discovered a way to advance quickly.

“That won’t do. Every time you absorb the source of fire, your internal organs will suffer damage. If this continues for a long time, you definitely won’t be able to take it. Maybe once a month. But cultivating at the edge of the Burial Ground should be much faster,” Elder Zhao replied.

In fact, Ye Suixin also thought it was impossible, as her body was still in pain.

But it's not a big problem. Once a month, plus my own cultivation, I can advance once every three months at most, which is much faster.

"Then try sensing the spirit of the alchemy furnace again. I really think you might be able to subdue one," Zhao Yingtian continued, unable to hide his excitement.

Ye Suixin nodded and sat cross-legged on the ground.

"I forgot to mention earlier, it might be better to release your spiritual energy and let the spirit of the alchemy furnace come to you on its own," Old Zhao said, rubbing his forehead, realizing his memory was getting worse and worse.

"Okay," Ye Suixin did as she was told.

The pale red spiritual energy slowly diffused, gradually drawing in the source of fire from the air.

Sensing the extremely high temperature to the left front, Ye Suixin channeled her spiritual energy in that direction.

"Buzz".

He seemed to hear a sound, but upon closer listening, he heard nothing.
